Title
Puffin Models - The electric flight specialist
Description
Puffin Models is a full time model company that was formed in 2002 to spread the word about successful electric flight, and also to introduce quality Czech electric flight products to the UK modeller. By successfully introducing the now popular Model Motors AXi brushless outrunner range along with RCM-Pelikan kits to the UK modeller we have been able to expand the range of motors, controllers, kits, and accessories that we hold on stock to include a number of ranges produced in the Czech Republic and other quality items produced in Germany. Our aim is to only sell what we are happy to use ourselves, and to hold stock of items for immediate delivery whenever possible. We aim to provide the best possible prices and service for the products that we sell, and of course we know how to make the best use of these items. We will never knowingly sell you an item that is unsuitable for your application.
